Better Business Bureau BBB They gave me a clearance of a company that ended up being a "front company" for embezzelment. Seattle Nationwide
As we all know, sometimes we make mistakes with lenders. I was dealing with a company out of Seattle for cash advance services, I called the Better Business Bureau for any information about this company in regards to its negative reports. The BBB gave me the "thumbs up" that this company was legit. come to find out - it wasn't. this happened back in 2008 when everyone was facing catastrophe thanks to our corrupt banking system. I was a victum needless to say of identity fraud, we contacted the FBI and supplied them with all the information and details of this company that screwed us.
The point I want to make here is this, even the BBB can make mistakes, in our case a costly mistake. just do your homework on businesses that offer to help you out financially, double check even what the BBB says, it could save you from unneccessary problems in the end. Look into any police reports about a company, contact the organizations like FBI to see if there are alerts out there involved with said company, like I said, the BBB had no idea that this company was doing crimes, they gave it a A rating for reliability. so do your homework!
